zeke Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hey kids. zeke here. I've had my CQ for some time now and was trained by Zoltan to install IQ about 4 years ago. I was wondering how many of us die hard CQ'er are still out here. I still enjoy mine very much and haven't had any problems with mine at all, except in the beginning when the block on the Y axis came loose. Easy fix. Give a shout out for yourselves and say hi. zeke.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue E. Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Zeke, I was the first APQS owner to have a CQ installed back in June 2005. I loved it but I now have an IQ which Zoltan (and Ron Paul) installed for me in April of this year. I am loving it. There are still times I miss the CQ but I am learning the IQ and it can do so much. And now that IntelliQuilter is supporting the CQs, all my cqp and cmd files can be brought easily into the IQ tablet just like any other file for the IQ.The IQ is a great system!

Darlene Epp Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'm a die hard CompuQuilter fan too! So sad to see the owners and company gone. I still think it's the most user friendly computerized system on the market! I have CQs on 2 Millenniums; a 2006 and a 2008. They're still working hard to turn out beautiful quilting. They just make it LOOK easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeke Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Oh yea. We rock. Zeke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I never thought I would say this.....but I am a wanna be. I have been a hold out, because the quilting was terrible in the beginning, in my humble opinion. You could spot a computer quilted quilt a mile away. But the computer quilting has come a long way.....if I ever buy, it will be CQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeke Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Mary Beth. Some of the CD's can be had for about $3000. The only drawback is that some parts are hard to find. IQ is said to have had parts if needed. But only a few. $3000 is a lot better then $14000. Right now I have about $10000 in programs for mine. I won't give mine up. Zeke.

Darlene Epp Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Last I heard, APQS still had some parts in stock. I won't give mine up either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue E. Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Zoltan at IntelliQuilter is now supporting the CQs. I believe he has some parts. I know that at one time he was giving a discount if you purchased an IQ and traded in your working CQ to him. He was trying to get parts to reuse.

Teresa O Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Any idea how to purchase a CQ system? I'm interested in adding one to my Millie I just purchased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningThreads Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 CQ went out of business several years ago, used ones do come up for sale occasionally. The two main choices you have for a new system would be Quilt Path made by the Grace Company, sold by APQS and Intelliquilter. Intelliquilter has been offering support for the CQ systems with the parts from the units he takes on trade. I'm very happy with my IQ system but do your research and spend some time on both systems.
